One-On-One With Rookie LB Victor Butler: Why Cowboys-Raiders Is A 'Civil War'
by Mike Fisher on Nov 24, 2009 10:50 AM CST
42 comments
"It's like the Civil War,'' says Cowboys rookie pass-rusher Victor Butler. "Brother-against-brother, best-friend-against-best-friend, and all that. It's something that I'm used to, the rivalry thing, and it's one of the really fun things about playing football.''
And I'm officially confused. I'm trying to talk to Butler about his potential role in the upcoming Thanksgiving meeting between the Raiders and the Cowboys. So. ... what rivalry? And how did the Union and the Confederacy get dragged into this?
"You know, ‘The Civil War!''' says an incredulous Butler. "Oregon State vs. Oregon!''
Oh, yeah.
"And for me, playing the Raiders is going to be a repeat of The Civil War because I've got so many friends on that team.''
OK. Gotcha. It makes sense now. And it also makes sense to keep an eye on Butler in this game ... and he and I will tell you why:

The VRR: Cowboys Must Get Back in Saddle after Pulling off Squeaker over 'Skins
by Aaron Novinger on Nov 23, 2009 10:48 PM CST
in News
63 comments
The 7-6 victory over the rival Redskins did little to boost fans' confidence in the Cowboys' struggling offense. Running the ball 33 times - including six straight called in the first quarter - may have made the playcalling seem more "balanced", yet it produced no points.
However intriguing it is to see Felix Jones break the double-digit carry barrier for the first time in his career, or to see Marion Barber come up a yard shy from hitting the century mark, the scoreboard is still dependent on Tony Romo to pull that big, fat "0" down.
Heck, even Nick Folk failed (again) to get the team on the scoreboard prior to the end of the fourth quarter. Fortunately, the defense again refused to let that other side of the scoreboard be lit up.
Unfortunately, the Cowboys will be a bit more banged up heading into the shortened Thanksgiving week. Nothing major, but there are some bumps and bruises that must be played through as the team hosts the Raiders on Thursday. Making it through this week unscathed can be a real asset, as the team will get a few extra days to rest up before the Week 13 road game against the Giants.
More VRR after the jump.

FISH on FOOTBALL: Cowboys Top-10 Takes After Surviving Redskins
by Mike Fisher on Nov 23, 2009 3:00 PM CST
205 comments
It was the first game in the 50-year history of the Dallas Cowboys to end with a score of 7-6 … yet it was so impressive (to some) that Roy Williams opened his mouth (if not his hands) to declare that the win over the Redskins means "This football team is good enough to win the Super Bowl.’’
Well, yes. It can. But … well … let’s do first things first, starting with FISH on FOOTBALL’s Top 10 Takes on Sunday’s victory:

Cowboys vs. Redskins: The Pros and Cons of Winning Ugly
by Dave Halprin on Nov 23, 2009 11:11 AM CST
227 comments
Granted, that game against the Redskins was an ugly thing to watch. For two straight weeks, the Dallas Cowboys offense has caused acid-reflux in the fanbase. Still, there was a lot of good news out of Sunday's game.
Let's check out the pros and cons of winning ugly over the Redskins.
Pros:
We can file this one under the ‘a win is a win' category. And in the NFL, that supercedes all else. There is one overall objective every NFL team has when taking the field for a game - get the W. The Cowboys did.
Dallas still leads the NFC East and just got a division win. Plus, they protected home-court.
Make the jump...

Some odd factoids to feast on as you start your short week:
Cupcake This!
5 -- Dallas is 5th in scoring defense and rising. Look at the Cowboys and other league and conference contenders:
1. Colts - 15.7 ppg.
2. Patriots - 16.4
3. Bengals - 16.7
4. Ravens - 17.1
5. Cowboys - 17.5
10. Vikings - 19.3
11. Cardinals - 19.7
13T. Saints - 20.4
13T. Eagles - 20.4
19T. Falcons - 22.8
23T. Giants - 23.5
Dallas faces Oakland next. They average a league-worst 10.8 points per game. They have not topped 20 points this year. They've topped 13 points just three times. They've scored 10 points or less in half their games. If the Cowboys hold the Raiders to their average of 10 points, Wade's guys will likely crack the top three in scoring defense.
